Advising Millennials: A New Era of Financial Conversations

A Generation With New Expectations

Millennials have grown up in a time of economic turbulence, from student debt crises to volatile housing markets. They’ve seen their parents lose retirement savings and are determined to make smarter, more intentional decisions. But they don’t just want a portfolio — they want a plan that aligns with their values, lifestyles, and goals.

Millennials aren’t afraid of money—they’re afraid of being misunderstood.

Trust Comes From Listening, Not Lecturing

Unlike previous generations, millennials often view financial advisors as guides, not gurus. They expect collaboration and mutual respect. Advisors who take time to understand their challenges — including high debt, rising living costs, and work-life balance — build better connections.

Digital-First, Human-Centered

Millennials love convenience, but they also crave authenticity. They may start online, but they stay with advisors who feel genuine. They appreciate clarity over complexity and value transparency when it comes to fees, services, and risks.

It’s About More Than Wealth

This generation sees money as a tool, not a trophy. They’re investing in travel, experiences, mental health, and passion projects — and still planning for retirement. They need advisors who can talk both numbers and meaning.
